Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of early warning of coal and rock instability, and in particular to a method and system for identifying precursors of coal and rock instability based on fracture topology parameters. Background Technology

[0002] As coal mining depths continue to increase, the geological structures of mines are becoming increasingly complex, with coal and rock masses subjected to long-term high-stress, multi-source disturbances, and nonlinear loading environments. This complex stress evolution process easily triggers unstable expansion and sudden rupture of internal fissures in the coal and rock mass, thereby inducing typical dynamic disasters such as rockbursts, coal and gas outbursts, roadway instability, and roof collapse. Before instability and rupture, coal and rock masses often undergo a series of microstructural evolution and energy release processes, exhibiting certain precursory characteristics. Therefore, identifying these hidden precursory signs before disasters occur and promptly determining whether the coal and rock mass has entered the instability evolution stage has become a key issue in the current field of coal mine disaster prevention and control.

[0003] Microseismic monitoring, as a highly sensitive and non-destructive detection method, can capture elastic wave signals released by micro-fracture activity in coal and rock masses under load in real time. By comprehensively analyzing the spatiotemporal distribution, frequency characteristics, and energy evolution of microseismic events, precursory features of coal and rock fractures can be effectively identified, thereby achieving early perception and accurate warning of dynamic disasters. Patent CN114895352A proposes a method and device for predicting rock mass instability based on microseismic monitoring. It constructs a logarithmic potential energy ratio based on source parameters, volumetric potential, and energy release, and establishes a fuzzy warning time model in conjunction with cumulative apparent volume to achieve time-based warning of rock mass instability. Patent CN117932371A discloses a spatiotemporal prediction method for rockburst based on the "time-space-intensity" characteristics of microseismic data. It uses an LSTM network to predict the occurrence time of rockburst based on precursory pattern sequences from microseismic data, and utilizes multi-scale spatial cloud map fusion to achieve spatial identification of hazardous areas using microseismic spatiotemporal characteristic indicators. Patent CN117150911A proposes a method and system for predicting coal and rock instability and fracturing based on graph neural networks. This method constructs a network graph by dividing microseismic signals into temporal and spatial parts, predicts future topological evolution through graph embedding and neural networks, and identifies important nodes as precursors to fracturing, achieving accurate early warning. These methods can, to some extent, reflect the energy release and disturbance response of rock masses during fracturing, and, combined with models such as neural networks, can identify precursor patterns and predict them temporally and spatially. However, they still have significant limitations: they mainly focus on the spatiotemporal distribution, frequency characteristics, and energy parameters of the microseismic signals themselves, starting only from the "signal level," failing to deeply explore the evolutionary laws of fracture structures reflected behind microseismic events, and making it difficult to comprehensively reflect the complex fracture behavior during the fracturing evolution stage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This solution addresses the problems and needs raised above by proposing a method and system for identifying precursors of coal and rock instability based on fracture topology parameters. The above technical objectives are achieved by adopting the following technical features, and several other technical benefits are also brought about.

[0005] One objective of this invention is to propose a method for identifying precursors of coal and rock instability based on fracture topology parameters, comprising the following steps:

[0006] S10: Raw acoustic data is acquired through a microseismic monitoring system. Combined with source location calculation and source mechanism inversion, core physical parameters directly related to the micro-fracture source are obtained during the coal and rock fracturing process.

[0007] S20: Taking into account the geometric size and directional characteristics of fractures, four types of topological relationships are defined, the fracture penetration index (BCI) is quantitatively calculated, the fracture network is abstracted into a graph model based on graph theory, a topological model that characterizes the spatiotemporal evolution of fractures is constructed, multidimensional time-series topological parameters are extracted, and a multivariate topological time series dataset reflecting the evolution of coal and rock fractures is obtained.

[0008] S30: Divide the constructed multivariate topological time series dataset into training and testing sets, and perform data normalization and outlier handling on the time series of each dimension of topological structure parameters.

[0009] S40: Based on the preprocessed training set data, a multivariate time series graph model MTAD-GAT is constructed to form a dual graph attention mechanism that is feature-oriented and time-oriented, respectively modeling the structural dependencies and temporal evolution trends between topological parameters; multi-head attention is introduced into the graph attention layer, and different attention scores are calculated through multiple independent attention heads; the local and global features extracted from the graph attention layer and the one-dimensional convolutional layer are fused and input into the gated recurrent unit (GRU) to deeply capture the dynamic evolution patterns and long-term dependencies of topological features; during training, the model is iteratively optimized by minimizing the loss function and combining backpropagation and gradient update mechanisms;

[0010] S50: The trained model is applied to the test set data. The output of the gated recurrent unit (GRU) is fed into the prediction module for predicting the observations at the next time step and the reconstruction module for characterizing the overall temporal distribution features, respectively. The errors of the two modules are fused to construct an anomaly score as an instability precursor index. The temporal changes of the anomaly score are used to determine the rupture precursor interval, and then the high-contribution topological parameters and their change characteristics that change significantly within the precursor interval are identified.

[0011] Furthermore, the coal and rock instability precursor identification method and system based on fracture topology parameters according to the present invention may also have the following technical features:

[0012] In one example of the present invention, in step S10, raw acoustic data is acquired, and combined with source location calculation and source mechanism inversion, core parameters of the coal and rock fracture source directly related to the fracture are obtained. Specifically, this includes the following steps:

[0013] S11: The raw acoustic data collected by the microseismic monitoring system is post-processed, and the arrival time and amplitude information of the first wave are extracted using the red-delay information criterion method.

[0016] S14: The core physical parameters of the coal and rock fracture source are quantitatively inverted by calculating the moment tensor components. The core physical parameters include the location coordinates, spatial orientation, and fracture volume.

[0017] In one example of the present invention, in step S20, four types of topological relationships are defined by comprehensively considering the geometric size and directional characteristics of the fracture, the fracture continuity index (BCI) is quantitatively calculated, the fracture network is abstracted into a graph model based on graph theory, a topological model characterizing the spatiotemporal evolution of the fracture is constructed, multidimensional time-series topological parameters are extracted, and a multivariate topological time series dataset reflecting the evolution of coal and rock fractures is obtained, including the following steps:

[0018] S21: Based on geometric relationships, using the fracture location coordinates, volume radius, and spatial orientation, construct the normal vector and parametric equations of the intersection line between any two fracture planes, and then solve them simultaneously with the equations of the sphere containing the fracture. By analyzing the spatial positional relationship of the intersection points, determine four types of topological relationships between fractures: intersecting, connected, embedded, or disjoint. Simultaneously, calculate the diameter of the intersection circle based on the distance between the fracture spherical radius and the center of the sphere to characterize the geometric connection features of the fractures.

[0019] S22: For any fractures i and j in a fracture network, after determining the existence of a connection relationship based on the spatial topological relationship between the fractures, the formula for calculating the fracture penetration index is as follows:

[0020]

[0021] In the formula, Z(V) i ) and Z(V j ) are the normalized volume values ​​of the i-th and j-th fractures, respectively, and d ij Let be the Euclidean distance between the i-th fracture and the j-th fracture;

[0022] Assuming there are n continuous fracture nodes around fracture i, the total fracture continuity index (BCI) is... i The calculation formula is as follows:

[0023]

[0024] S23: After determining the connectivity between fractures, construct a fracture network topology model based on the geometric relationship between the fracture center and the intersection center;

[0025] S24: Extract multidimensional topological attribute parameters of the fracture network, and combine them with the time series information of microseismic events to construct a multivariate topological time series feature dataset characterizing the time-varying evolution of the fracture network structure; among which, the multidimensional topological attribute parameters include: connection type, network density, clustering coefficient, cumulative openness and connectivity index.

[0026] In one example of the present invention, the process of constructing the fracture network topology model in step S23 includes the following steps:

[0027] The fracture network is abstracted into a graph structure using graph theory, where fractures are nodes and are classified into I nodes, T nodes, Y nodes, X nodes and D nodes according to the number of connecting edges. The degree of a node is defined as the total number of connecting edges.

[0028] The geometric information of the fracture is assigned to the edges connecting the nodes. The edges are divided into unidirectional edges and bidirectional edges according to the connectivity index (BCI). Among them, unidirectional edges represent lower connectivity and weak interaction, while bidirectional edges represent higher connectivity and strong interaction, which can form stable fracture channels. The fracture network topology model includes:

[0029] In one example of the present invention, step S30, which involves partitioning the multivariate topological time series dataset and performing data preprocessing, includes the following steps:

[0030] S31: Divide the constructed multivariate topological time series dataset into a training set and a test set. The training set selects data from the stable evolution stage from the early to the middle stage of coal and rock fracturing, while the test set selects data from the later stage before instability and fracturing.

[0033] In the formula, This represents the minimum value of the topology parameter. The maximum value of the topology parameter, y i ∈[0,1];

[0034] S33: The spectral residual method is used to identify and remove outliers in the time series of topological parameters of each dimension in the training set.

[0035] In one example of the present invention, in step S40, the MTAD-GAT model includes a 1-D convolutional layer, which is used to extract high-level features for each timestamp from the input multivariate time series data, specifically including:

[0036] Let the input tensor of the multivariate time series be X∈R. T×N×D Where T is the maximum timestamp length, N is the number of variables, and D is the input feature dimension of each variable. The feature extraction formula through a 1-D convolutional layer is as follows:

[0038] In the formula, X conv is the output tensor of the 1-D convolutional layer, and D′ is the dimension of the local features extracted after passing through the 1-D convolutional layer.

[0039] In one example of the present invention, in step S40, the dual-graph attention mechanism includes the following steps:

[0040] S41: Linear Transformation: For each attention head m = 1, 2, ..., M, transform the output of each node after passing through a 1-D convolutional layer.

[0041] Feature X conv ∈R T×N×D′ Perform a linear mapping, the expression of which is:

[0042]

[0043] Where: h i ∈R D′ W represents the output feature of the i-th node after passing through the convolutional layer. (m) ∈R F×D′ Let F be a learnable linear mapping matrix, and let F be the output dimension of each attention head. Features after mapping;

[0047] S43: Normalized Attention Weights: The attention scores are normalized using Softmax, and the expression is as follows:

[0048]

[0049] In the formula, Let represent the normalized attention score between nodes i and j in the m-th attention head, Softmax represent the activation function, and N(i) be the set of neighboring nodes of node i.

[0050] S44: Aggregate Neighbor Features: By weighting the features of neighbor nodes through attention, the expression for updating a node is:

[0051]

[0052] In the formula, σ represents the aggregated feature output of node i in the m-th attention head, where σ is a non-linear activation function.

[0053] S45: Multi-head output aggregation: Concatenates the output features of each head along its dimensions. The expression is as follows:

[0054]

[0055] In the formula, z i This represents the final representation of node i after all heads have been merged;

[0056] The final output of the feature-oriented graph attention layer is: The final output of the time-oriented graph attention layer is The outputs of the feature-oriented graph attention layer and the time-oriented graph attention layer are arranged into a unified tensor, which is then concatenated with the output of the 1-D convolutional layer to obtain the overall representation after output concatenation. This representation is then used as input to the GRU layer for dynamic temporal modeling.

[0058] In the formula, M·F is the dimension of the final output of each GAT layer, and D″ is the total feature dimension after concatenation.

[0059] In one example of the present invention, step S50 includes the following steps:

[0060] S51: Joint Optimization Strategy to Construct Multi-Objective Loss Function: Combining the prediction and reconstruction modules, a joint loss function is introduced during training to simultaneously optimize the two sub-networks, as shown in the following formula:

[0061] Loss = Loss for +Loss rec

[0062] In the formula, Loss for Loss is the loss function for the prediction model. rec The loss function for reconstructing the model;

[0063] S52: Constructing an anomaly scoring mechanism: The model generates prediction error and reconstruction probability separately, and constructs a comprehensive anomaly scoring function by fusing the two. A peak-to-threshold algorithm is used to select the anomaly threshold on the validation set. If the anomaly score at a certain time step is greater than the anomaly threshold, that time step is marked as "abnormal"; otherwise, it is marked as "normal." The "abnormal" score is used as an instability precursor index to identify the rupture precursor interval.

[0064] The formula for calculating the comprehensive anomaly scoring function is as follows:

[0065]

[0066] In the formula, For predicted values Compared with the actual value x i The squared error between (1-p) i ) represents the probability of encountering an outlier in feature i based on the reconstructed model, and γ is a hyperparameter selected for the validation set to balance the two modules.

[0071] The reconstruction module is configured to learn the probability distribution of the entire input sequence in the latent space using a variational autoencoder, reconstruct the input, and calculate the reconstruction error; wherein the reconstruction loss function is expressed as:

[0072]

[0073] In the formula, the first term is the reconstruction error, which measures how close the reconstructed value is to the original input, q. φ (z|x) is the encoder. The first term is the decoder; the second term is the KL divergence, the regularized latent space distribution, and the latent variables. Represents the implicit structure of data.

[0074] Another objective of this invention is to propose a coal and rock instability precursor identification system based on fracture topology parameters, comprising:

[0075] The source parameter acquisition module is configured to acquire raw acoustic data through a microseismic monitoring system, and combine source location calculation and source mechanism inversion to obtain core physical parameters directly related to the micro-fracture source during the coal and rock fracturing process.

[0076] The topology parameter acquisition module is configured to comprehensively consider the geometric size and directional characteristics of fractures to define four types of topological relationships, quantitatively calculate the fracture penetration index (BCI), and abstract the fracture network into a graph model based on graph theory to construct a topology model that characterizes the spatiotemporal evolution of fractures, extract multidimensional time-series topology parameters, and obtain a multivariate topology time series dataset that reflects the evolution of coal and rock fractures.

[0077] The dataset processing and partitioning module is configured to divide the constructed multivariate topological time series dataset into training and testing sets, and to perform data normalization and outlier handling on the time series of each dimension of topological structure parameters.

[0078] The precursor recognition model building module is configured to construct a multivariate time series graph model MTAD-GAT based on preprocessed training data, forming a dual graph attention mechanism that is both feature-oriented and time-oriented, respectively modeling the structural dependencies and temporal evolution trends between topological parameters. Multi-head attention is introduced into the graph attention layer, with multiple independent attention heads calculating different attention scores. Local and global features extracted from the graph attention layer and the one-dimensional convolutional layer are fused and input into a gated recurrent unit (GRU) to deeply capture the dynamic evolution patterns and long-term dependencies of topological features. During training, the model is iteratively optimized by minimizing the loss function and combining backpropagation and gradient update mechanisms.

[0079] The instability precursor identification module is configured to input the output of the gated recurrent unit (GRU) into the prediction module for predicting the observation value at the next time step and the reconstruction module for characterizing the overall temporal distribution characteristics, respectively; to construct an anomaly score by fusing the errors of the two modules, which serves as the instability precursor index; to determine the rupture precursor interval by the temporal change of the anomaly score, and then to identify the high-contribution topological parameters and their change characteristics that have changed significantly within the precursor interval.

[0080] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0081] This invention utilizes microseismic monitoring data to invert the source mechanism, accurately capturing the source characteristics of fractures and dynamically tracking the occurrence, expansion, and penetration of fractures. This allows for the construction of fracture topology structures that more closely resemble the actual evolutionary patterns, providing a new path for achieving more physically based early warning of coal and rock mass instability and significantly improving the scientific rigor and reliability of precursor identification.

[0082] This invention constructs a fracture network topology analysis model based on graph theory. By extracting multi-dimensional topology parameters, it characterizes the evolution law and local anomaly features of the fracture network, realizing the structural identification and quantitative representation of the precursors of instability and rupture. This breaks through the limitations of traditional early warning based on signal features and provides a more accurate and interpretable intelligent early warning method for coal and rock dynamic disasters.

[0083] This invention introduces the multivariate time series graphical model MTAD-GAT, which employs an unsupervised learning mechanism. It eliminates the need for pre-defined labels or manually defined feature thresholds, automatically mining potential anomalous patterns from historical fracture topology evolution data, significantly improving the model's adaptability and generalization ability. Secondly, MTAD-GAT possesses multivariate recognition capabilities, simultaneously handling the joint evolutionary features of multiple topological parameters, avoiding misjudgments and missed detections that may arise from single indicators, thus enhancing the comprehensiveness and robustness of precursor identification. Furthermore, multi-head attention is introduced to improve the model, enabling it to capture different structural and temporal-dependent features in parallel from multiple subspaces, effectively enhancing the stability and expressive power of feature representation, further improving the perception of complex fracture evolution patterns and the accuracy of anomaly detection.

[0084] This invention fully integrates graph modeling and multivariate time series graph modeling, realizing a new path for precursor identification and disaster early warning based on fracture structure evolution. It breaks through the traditional early warning method based on signal analysis and establishes an intelligent identification framework oriented towards the fracture structure evolution mechanism. It provides more scientific and efficient technical support for early warning and proactive prevention and control of coal and rock dynamic disasters, and has significant engineering practical value and broad prospects for promotion and application.

[0094] To address this deficiency, monitoring and early warning methods based on fracture structure have gradually become a research hotspot. By constructing fracture topology networks and analyzing the topological changes of the network structure during temporal evolution, the correlation and synergistic anomaly characteristics between fractures can be deeply explored, identifying potential rupture precursors at the structural level, significantly improving the physical interpretability and reliability of early warning. Simultaneously, introducing neural networks to perform temporal modeling of fracture topology parameters can effectively capture the nonlinear relationships between topological features and their dynamic trends over time, improving the sensitivity and accuracy of precursor identification. Therefore, precursor identification methods based on fracture network structures and neural networks can more comprehensively and accurately reveal the evolution process of fractures within coal and rock masses, providing strong technical support for mine safety management and greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of precursor identification.

[0095] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a method for identifying precursors of coal and rock instability based on fracture topology parameters is provided, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0096] S10: Raw acoustic data is acquired through a microseismic monitoring system. Combined with source location calculation and source mechanism inversion, core physical parameters directly related to the micro-fracture source are obtained during the coal and rock fracturing process.

[0097] S20: Taking into account the geometric size and directional characteristics of fractures, four types of topological relationships are defined, the fracture penetration index (BCI) is quantitatively calculated, and the fracture network is abstracted into a graph model based on graph theory. A topological model that characterizes the spatiotemporal evolution of fractures is constructed, and multi-dimensional time-series topological parameters such as connection type and network density are extracted to obtain a multivariate topological time series dataset that reflects the evolution of coal and rock fractures, providing structured input data for precursor identification.

[0098] S30: Divide the constructed multivariate topological time series dataset into training and test sets, and perform data normalization and outlier removal on the time series of each dimension of topological structure parameters; data normalization is applied to both the training and test sets, while outlier removal is applied only to the training set.

[0099] S40: Based on the preprocessed training set data, a multivariate time series graph model MTAD-GAT is constructed to form a dual graph attention mechanism that is feature-oriented and time-oriented, respectively modeling the structural dependencies and temporal evolution trends between topological parameters. Multi-head attention is introduced into the graph attention layer, and different attention scores are calculated through multiple independent attention heads to obtain more stable and expressive feature representations, thereby enhancing the model's ability to model local structures and temporal patterns. The local and global features extracted from the graph attention layer and the one-dimensional convolutional layer are fused and input into the gated recurrent unit (GRU) to deeply capture the dynamic evolution patterns and long-term dependencies of topological features. During training, the model is iteratively optimized by minimizing the loss function and combining backpropagation and gradient update mechanisms.

[0100] S50: The trained model is applied to the test set data. The output of the gate-gated recurrent unit (GRU) is fed into the prediction module for predicting the observations at the next time step and the reconstruction module for characterizing the overall temporal distribution features, respectively. The errors of the two modules are fused to construct an anomaly score, which serves as an instability precursor index. The temporal changes of the anomaly score are used to determine the rupture precursor interval, thereby identifying the high-contribution topological parameters and their change characteristics that change significantly within the precursor interval.

[0101] It is understandable that, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the multivariate time series graphical model MTAD-GAT includes: a one-dimensional convolutional layer, a graph attention layer, a gated recurrent unit (GRU), a prediction module, and a reconstruction module. The graph attention layer includes a parallel feature-oriented graph attention GAT layer and a time-oriented graph attention GAT layer. The front end of the graph attention layer is coupled to the one-dimensional convolutional layer, and the back end of the graph attention layer is coupled to the gated recurrent unit (GRU) through concatenation. The gated recurrent unit (GRU) is coupled to the parallel prediction module and reconstruction module, respectively.

[0102] This identification method utilizes microseismic monitoring data to invert the source mechanism, accurately capturing the source characteristics of fractures and dynamically tracking the occurrence, expansion, and penetration of fractures. This allows for the construction of fracture topology structures that more closely resemble the actual evolutionary patterns, providing a new path for achieving more physically based early warning of coal and rock mass instability and significantly improving the scientific rigor and reliability of precursor identification.

[0103] This identification method is based on graph theory to construct a fracture network topology analysis model. By extracting multi-dimensional topology parameters, it characterizes the evolution law and local anomaly features of the fracture network, realizing the structural identification and quantitative representation of the precursors of instability and rupture. It breaks through the limitations of traditional early warning based on signal features and provides a more accurate and interpretable intelligent early warning means for coal and rock dynamic disasters.
